Braves Acquire Veteran Pitcher Tyler Mahle from Giants

The Atlanta Braves have acquired veteran starting pitcher Tyler Mahle from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for right-handed pitcher Anthony Molina. The move bolsters the Braves' rotation as they push for the postseason following Reynaldo López's placement on the 15-day injured list. Mahle, 31, is 3-9 this season with a 5.13 ERA and 89 strikeouts. He joins Bailey Falter as a key addition to the staff as the Giants begin a trade deadline sell-off.
